I was asked above by someone what is the point of my posts. The point is to improve husbandry. Eg. having your snakes not eating off the floor of cages with hundreds of microscopic nematode eggs. Along with this improving the health of the animal is the point. By the way, I did learn most of this in books readily available. That was my other point, that anyone can learn it too. By the way, if someone knows that their animals have internal parasites and is ok with it, is fine for that person. But do you tell your customers that your animals are infected or might or might not be infected. I know I'm pretty ticked when someone sends me a parasite ridden animal. They are sent right back next day air. Is it ok for an animal that is infected to be sent to someone who has spent years cleaning and keeping their animals clean. Only to have 1 purchase possibly destroy their whole collection. I'm not directing this at anyone in particular. Just some things to think about. Mike Bodner
